Hi, I'm an Artist based in North Wales, I like to paint in oils. After studying Architecture in Bristol UWE I began to document the built and natural environment, focusing on the architectural and social context of the areas I paint.
Original paintings are for sale, if not yet sold. Limited timber mounted canvas prints are available for most paintings. I will take on commissions too. If you have any queries please inbox me in contact.
I hope you enjoy the website
Llanberis Slate Quarry, situated on the hills of the pen-y-pas valley in Snowdonia. Within this disused Quarry are decaying industrial reminants of a very large scale Slate producing operation. The painting depicts the long Work house were the Slate was cut on large cast iron machines and then sorted to be sent onwards by rail. The roof (what's left) is literally clinging on for survival, I felt it necessary to capture it at this moment as one or two more storms may be all that's left, before it no longer stands so strong.
